if the eyesign fanatic was winning every national, combine and federation races frequently id believe it then, i looked into the theory at one time but now through it at the door, i asked a fancier once when at an auction at blackpool, every pigeon he handled he took the eye glass out and looked at the pigeons eye, i asked him what he was looking for and he couldnt give me an answer. Watch these people at auctions its amazing how many people go through the motions just because they saw other people doing it.
